I was assuming it was like a "standard" home purchase at that point that the bank provides the rest of the cash needed, but at draw points during the build.Maybe I'm WAY off here, again, I've never built anything.

I am happy to consider listing with a realtor, but the price would have to increase to accommodate commissions.

There are exceptions - some properties are set up such that installing a few electric baseboard heaters might be possible to save on the gas bill - but i would still just shy away if not metered separately at the outset.  10) do shop for a lender and compare (usually pretty standard but there can be some fluctuation) - dont fall for the ones that sound too good to be true - there are gimmicks out there - big bank or reputable broker should do you fine.  

The shorter the prepayment term has an impact on increasing the rate.4.

Three years is the standard PPP, but 0-5 year options are usually available.

Start small with a multifamily property in areas showing job growth, population increases, or redevelopment potential.

This is pretty standard and should be in there, unless you went with non-standard docs

There are very few places where you can still get anywhere near the 1% rule, and in Omaha you really don't have to look that hard to find those opportunities in droves.Not to get too into the weeds, but I have a thesis that the Midwest as a whole will begin to outperform the coastal and southernmost cities as time goes on-- primarily driven by increasing COL & decreasing QOL in said coastal urban cities. 

For sure get hard quotes for the reno and for insurance and property tax increases.

Anyone saying that against you think there needs to be some invisible standard of requirement.
